Turning the Tables At 50

My wife and I were born only a few months apart, I was older than her...so you know from whence I start. When I was turning 50 she gave me some grief, I didn't feel old, yet she teased me with this belief. "I'll be living with an old man now", she would say, In her little "cutie pie", "cut-up" way. I knew I would have to do something to get back at her, When she turned 50...was the time I waited for. Those few months of her teasing me I never forgot, Biding my time for revenge...or so I thought. The big day came and I had the chance, To avenge the barbs on which she'd made me dance. We celebrated her 50th with some friends, And got to talking about our ages, as those times tend. I thought I'd be clever and cast out this net... "I've never had sex with anyone over 50, as yet". Our stunned little group fell silent and looked at me scantilly, Thinking of how rude a comment to say...that was for me. My wife, of course, knew the target to which I'd let my arrow fly, Broke the silence of the moment, and made this reply... "Well, I don't know how anyone else here might feel, But I have had sex with one here older than 50, and it's NO BIG DEAL". I had no rebuttal then and have had none until this time, When I could put my perspective of all this into a rhyme. It's been a brutal 17 years since that night, When we sparred those few words in our "Age 50" fight. But from that one chance banter I have learned one thing not to pick, DON'T CROSS WORDS WITH HER...BECAUSE SHE'S JUST TOO QUICK!!
